Abstract

1,145,949. Marine seismic prospecting. CONTINENTAL OIL CO. 27 Oct., 1967 [4 Nov., 1966], No. 48977/67. Addition to 1,087,504. Heading H4D. A seismic energy generator for marine prospecting is essentially similar to that of the parent Specification 1,087,504 but modified in that the vibrator piston, 64, is sealed to the bell-shaped housing 62 by a generally cylindrical flexible member 110 instead of by flexible diaphragms.
